The slow motion treatment has highlighted the brilliance of Kyogo Furuhashi’s goal for Celtic against Hibs on Saturday.
At normal speed there is clearly something special about the movement but in slo-mo you can see the effort required to basically hurdle across the ball to control it on his right foot.
The way that he throws his left foot forward is something special but there is still work to be done. The touch that followed to beat Jordan Smith with the softest of chips certainly brought back memories of Henrik Larsson.

Without question that moment lit up the match which had mainly been memorable for the saves produced by Kasper Schmeichel, a very unlikely Man of the Match.
Next stop for Kyogo and Celtic is Dinamo Zagreb on Tuesday and the chance to make real progress in the Champions League.
Celtic’s form in the competition has been variable so far, taking eight points from five matches.
A repeat of the form shown against Atalanta and RB Leipzig will be required to take something from the Croatian champions, if a chance comes the way of Kyogo every fan will be hoping that he repeats the composure shown to score against Hibs.
Episode two out later today.
What a finish and some real cool composure.
Now on to sevco and wee Coco the klown at ibrox noise,apparently the compo for Stonner Barron will be concluded after the festive period,the hold up has been the games leading up to this period,have you ever heard so much shite in your life.
The actual compensation to be agreed should be less than what Aberdeen are looking out for,the reason for this is because wee Coco has put it out there that good players with big value price tags also go on the cheap,his take for this is,just look at the 5 players sevco sold for combined fee of £800,000.
Now on to the manager for the Month we all know now that it’s going to Kojak,all those wins all those goals,closing the gap on Aberdeen,heading into second place,running riot in Europe lifting the league cup part 1 of 4 on his way to sweeping all before him with the QUADRUPLE at the end of the rainbow.
Ah wee Coco he does smoke and drink some really powerful shite.
In real time, it was immediately impressive that Kyogo had the awareness – and confidence – to do that wee dummy
as the keeper was charging out at him.
He made it look easy.
You won’t see a better goal this season, technically superb.
